Preliminary negotiations have been in progress for - months, and the project has been sub Atted to the J k naginent of the most eminent Venezuelan merchants, and nag met with their unq , alified approval. Support is promised in highly influential quarters, and the Directors are assured that the privilege of timing Bank notes will be accorded by the Government, She banking facilities which Caracas has hitherto pos. ted have been very limited, but the fast that the Bank '..12t Caracas, which will now merge i •to this establishment, as despite its restricted means—earned a net profit exceed fag 30 er cent. per annum, leaves no doubt that tae present lt edertaking will result in complete success. The following, published by Messrs. Matheson and Co., white inviting tenders for th Venezuelan Loan in June last, Attil confirm the above statements : " At present there 13 almost an entire absence of banking lto oomrnodation in Venezuela. Possessed of eve advantage ry of clim t o an d so il , w i t hi n s i x t een d a y s ' sa il of England, the exis ing monetary facilities are quite inadequate to the corn nteree of the country, and to the increasing production and Vapidly extending experts of its coffee, cocoa, cotton, hides, The advantages of this Institution will be obvious to all, and as the rat a of interest r ang t'om 1' to 15 per cent. per annum, the profits may be d'lTected to be considerable." It may be added, that since that period, owing to the in 'creased and increasing demand for cap tal for the cultivation of cotto ~ which is now being exported to England in large quantities, it finds safe and prefitable employment at much higher rates than those quoted by Messr-. Matheson. The want of an Exchange Bank in Venezuela 00.asions 'the utmost inconvenience in buying and selang foreign bias ; this Bane will supply the want, and as returns can be :Made with far greater r-pidity from Vanezuel. than from I ndia, where ban ing facilities of a like nature have been found extremely profitable, it is certain this breech must be stilt mote remune ative. The principal control of the London and Venezuela Ilank will be v st,fi in the Board of Directors in England. They will select a manager of known qualifications, who, on his arrival, wi 1 have he assistance an., adv ce of the Direcrors n Caracas and La Guayra, who are Europeans of high standing in the country, and well known in connection with Venezuelan trade and finance.

IT 0 R T H A N D.-"PITMAN'S PHONO ►7 GR A PHY forms an exceedingly efficient -probably the MOST efficient-system of Shorthand that exists."—Sir Rowland Hill. We were in great doubt whether the officials of the Lon don, Brighton, and South Coast Railway would allow us to see the first race run, as in defiance of their own announce ments that special trains would commence running from Victoria at 11 30, they coolly declined to start any until a sufficient number of persons should be collected to fill one, and it was only on the indignant remonstrance of Count Batthyany, Lieut.-Col. Dickson, M.P., Mr. Merry, and other gentlemen, who demanded their money to be returned, with threats of going off to Waterloo, where the Epsom traffic has been admirably managed, that the station-master consented to despatch one. Such an unwarrantable attempt to break faith with the public deserves notice at our hands. The Grand Stand Stakes were won easily by the favou rite, Welbeck, and Col. Townley's Castle Hill was equally successful with his horses in the South Western Plate. The Cup brought acme good horses to the post, old Fairwater, who looked and went so well in the Craven on Tuesday, being made the favourite. She was not in the humour to day, however, and Lord St. Vincent's new purchase, Little Stag, repaid him in some measure for his large investment by winning with the greatest ease in a common canter. A field of 16 " maidens" sported silk for the Two-year old Stakes, for which the French stable furnished the favo rite, but not the winner, who turned up in a colt of Mr. Hodgman's. The Queen's Guineas were won it her usual hollow style by Caller-On ; and the Epsom Four-yr-Old Stakes, re duced to a match between Jamicoton and Blue Mantle, were carried off easily by the latter. There was but little speculation on the Oaks, the French mare being pretty firm at 3 to 1, with Teneriffe and Tomato next in demand. The day was excessively disagreeable, a cold easterly wind and clouds of dust exerting a depressing influence on the proceedings. The Grand Stand Stakes (handicap) of 10 sous each, h ft, with 100 added ; winners extra. Last mile and three-quarters of the Metropolitan Stakes Course. 18 subs.

The favourite got away in front, closely followed by Double First and Tourist to the bend, where the latter ran rest his horses, and went on with a clear lead to the mile post, where he was pulled back into the third place, Turn of Tuck lying next with Alabama at her quarters, Vivid and Bally Edmond lying off. Descending the hill Turn of Luck went to the front and came round the bend into the straight with a decided lead, having Welbeck, Alabama, and Tourist as her immediate followers to the stand, where she was beaten, leaving Welbeck once more in advance, who won after a close struggle by half a length, three-quarters of a length between the second and third, and two lengths separating the third and fourth; Vivid was fifth, and Double First next. Wild Rake and Bally Edmond trotted in some distance in their rear. Sweet Willie and Budworth did not pass the post.

Betting-7 to 4 agst Castle Hill, 100 to 30 (at first 2to 1) agst Peignoir, 100 to 15 each agst Nebuchadnezzar and Quarantine. Oberon was first away, but was headed in a few strides by Waterloo, who came on with the running to the three quarters of a mile post, where the pair were headed by Quarantine, who led into the straight, where she was joined by the favourite and Nebuchadnezzar, the three run ning together to the Stand, where Castle Hill took a slight lead, and won cleverly by a length, three quarters of a length separating the second and third; Bangle was fourth, Oberon fifth, and Peignoir sixth. The others were beaten off. The Walton Stakes of 5 secs each, with 40 added, for 2-yr olds and upwards ; weight for age, with selling allow ances. New T.Y.C. Three-quarters of a mile. 5 subs. Mr T.

The latter made play, followed by Powderham, Loafer, and Coeur do Lion to the distance, where the favourite came out, and won easily by a neck; a length and a half between the second and third ; Coeur de Lion a good fourth.

Betting-5 to 4 agst Fairwater, 4to 1 agst Little Stag, 6 to 1 agst The Clown, and 100 to 15 agst Carolina. The start was delayed some short time through Caroline bolting. When they got away Little Stag jumped away with a clear lead, followed by Iphigenia, Tippler, and Gran bore, but the two latter were headed in a few strides by Fairwater, who came on in attendance upon Lord St. Vin cent's colt, wiio as they descended the hill held a lead of half-a-dozen lengths, Fairwater being as far in advance of Granboro, Tippler, and The Clown. At the road the race was virtually over, as Little Stag increased his lead at every stride, and won with hands down by 20 lengths. The Clown and Granboro, who ran past the favourite, who was pulling up at the stand, finished second and third, Caroline was fourth, and Fairwater next. Tippler, who was beaten early in the race, and Iphigenia walked in, but did not pass the post.

Several failures were occasioned by Bunch, Anti-Ma maser ana Silverlocks breaking away. The flag was le length lowered to a scrambling start. Le Bearnais on the upper ground, in compl39 with Volatile, made play to the road, where they were heeled by Victorious and Anti- Macassar, who came O!f together, with a slight lead of the Frenchman and Silverlocks, art latter iAng joined shortly after by Bunch; who got badly off, At the Stand the l atter was beaten, leaving the issue with the four: Mr. Hodg man's colt retained his advantage to the end, and won cleverly by a length, Anti-Macassar defeating Le Bearnais by a neck for second, the latter finishing a length and a half in advance of silverlocks; B unch was fifth, close up ; Fil bert sixth, Volatile seventh, and Verderer and Rialto next —the last three were Wings of the Wind, Fravolina, and Belle of Kars.

Yesterday evening the Duke of Buccleuch, as President of this society, with Sir Wentworth Dilke, Mr John Kelk, and others of the Vice-Presidents, held a owe) sazione in the conservatory of the gardens, to which the fellows of the society were invited, and a large number of distinguished visitors. The assembly was to have been honoured with the presence of several members of the late 'Loyal family of France, but at the last moment an apology was received ex pressing their regret that they were unavoidably compelled to decline the invitation. All the arrangements connected with the fete were perfect. It was, as we have said, held in the great conservatory, which was lighted brilliantly with gas for the occasion. The entrance for visitors was in the Albert-road, under the new orchard houses which have recently been erected, and which, instead of being filled with flowers, are entirely occupied with dwarf fruit trees of every kind, and en the tiny boughs of which the fruit, though green, already hang in heavy bunches. From these the visitors passed along the arcades, which were sufficiently lighted to show with good effect little groups of statues and parterres of ferns and flowering rhododendrons that were ranged in beds along the walks with charming taste. The arcade led at once into the conservatory, which was lighted up in a way that displayed the plants and details of its architecture to surpassing advantage. As a mere building, there are few more beautiful conservatories in England than that of the Horticultural Society, and the skill and care of Mr Eyles keeps it stocked with plants in such perfection as to leave it no rival in this particular, save, perhaps, what is termed the tropical end of the Crystal Palace. Last night all the beds of flowers in the centre were removed, and the floor covered with a white canvass as if for dancing, while the side parterres were filled in with flowering shrubs in such fullness of bloom that the eye was almost wearied with the glow and variety of their brilliant tints: Arcund the cornice, if we may so term it, of the interior, above the slender columns and before the springing of the curved group, ran a row of minute gas jets, each a small point of fire in its size, but in the aggre gate sufficient to light every portion of the edifice with a glare beyond that of the noonday sun. The galleries were carpeted and furnished with chairs, and everywhere was displayed all that was rare and nuvel in shrubs or flowers. One stand in particular, in the centre of the conservatory, was covered with a superb collection of rare plants, exqui site alike in their foliage and bloom, and such in fact as are seldom seen even at the greatest flower shows. The Duke of Buccleucb, with the vice-presidents, were in waiting to receive their guests at 9 o'clock, and from that hour until near 11 the arrivals were incessant, The conservatory and its galleries and arcades were then quite thronged, and any thing more beautiful than the interior then presented it would be difficult to imagine. Seen from the galleries, the ladies' toilettes were almost as brilliant as the flowers which rose everywhere around them, and only the bright green nf the long slender twining creepers around all the columns o the building remained to form the contrast, and as it were refresh the eye. It was intended that the outer gardens should have been thrown open to visitors as well, bat the extreme coldness of the night, to say nothing of the dark ness of the gardens themselves, deterred any person ven turing beyond the precincts of the conservatory. Another conversazione is to be given during the present season, to which we are sure all who were present at the exquisite scene of last night will look forward with pleasant expeeta- THE ORIGINAL OYAL 'BUCKINGHAM SAUCE, for Roast Meat, Rashes, Gravies, Stews, Steaks, Soups, Fish, Game, Sze.

WEBBER, the chairman of the Bridge-house Com mittee, brought up a report from that committee asking for authority to apply to Parliament to raise an additional sum of money for the purposes of the erection of the new bridge at Blackfriars. Mr LAWLEY said he should be glad if the hon. member would inform him when it was likely that the temporary bridge would be opened for traffic. He put the question in the interest of the public, who incurred considerable danger and very great inconvenience by the state of the old road and footway. (Hear, hoar ) Mr WEBBER said it was thought that it would be better to lay the present report before the Court before the tempo rary bridge was opened, but it was the intention of the com mittee to open the bridge as soon as possible. (Hear.) Mr WHEELER, one of the committee, said that the bridge could not be opened until possession was obtained of twc houses, and the necessary deeds had not yet been executed. When this was done the bridge would beimruediately opened. In answer to a question put by Alderman Salomons, Mr Wv.BßEit said that by t h e terms of the rontr.ot the contractors were bound to complete the new bridge by the expiration of three years. He also said that the temporary bridge had been certified to be perfectly safe for truffle. The report was then agreed to. TRU SEWERS COMMISSION. Mr ROWE moved "That the resolution of the Court of Dec. 12, 1861, That no director or shareholder in a com pany contracting with or employed by the City Commission of Sewers to supply gas for public lighting shall be appointed or shall continue to be a member of that commission,' be rescinded." The hon. member, in speaking in support of the motion, urged that it was most unfair to put a ban upon 10 or 12 gentlemen connected with the Corporation because they happened to be shareholders in a gas company. Mr WHEELER asked if Mr Rowe was a shareholder in a gas company. Mr Roble—Oh, yes, I am ono of those who are excluded. (A laugh.) After a short discussion, the motion was negatived by a large majority. , isi EW S PA.PE It • ' Naval and Military Intel*, Ape? ---- • VA' The offici:l trial of the iron clad stew • ace,- s e . a . 1 i , l eef f e prise, one of the class of wooden ar . vessels designed by Mr. Reed, the Cons - ( see the Navy, to decide whether wooden ships of ss ns than 1,000 tons burden, and therefore consinerably smaller than the Royal Oak and Prince Consort type cf armour clads, cannot be coated with shield armour plates of 41 inches in thickness, and ren dered es effective as our larger armour plated yes sale, took place yesterday at the measured mile, near the Nore, with the most satisfactory re sults. Although the Enterprise carries a casing of 4' _inch armour plating along both her sides, she is as buoyant in the water as a wooden sloop of the same class, and with the whole of her sea going stares, shot, guns, crew,and upwards of 100 toes of coal on board yesterday, the lower sill of her mid ship ports was between 6ft and 7ft out the water. As originally designed it was calculated that she would draw 12ft 9in forward and 15ft Sin aft, or a mean d;aught Of 14 t, but during her trial yester day she drew only 11ft 10in forward, aed. I,sft Sin aft, or just 3in less than was originally intenced,. The Enterprise is driven by a pair of horizontal single piston-rod engines , fit ted with surfa ce con densers, tubular boilers, super - heatere, and all the a i n n er yas supplied latest A test ie im as p re r . ov it em av e i n n t i s ii . 11, S Her al k i l a d eh , d Co. The en• gines are of 160 horsepower (no minal), but are cap able of being worked up to four times that power. The screw is a two-bladed Griffiths, with a diame ter of lift Bin, and a pitch of 111 ft. The diameter of the cylinders is 45in, and the length of stroke 18in. There is an area of fire.grate surface of 96 ft, and of heating surface 960 ft. There are two of Appold's pumps for circulating the water through the condensers, driven by a pair of auxiliary engines.. The Enterprise got under way at an early hour yes terday morning, and dropped down the river to the measured mile, the officials on board being 111 r. Reed, Chief Constructor of the Navy; Mr Dinners, of the site:am department at the Admiralty; Mr Barnaby, of Chatham dockyard ; and 111 r Bannister, assistant-inspector of machinery. The vessel was in charge of Capt. Luke, commanding the steam re serve in the Thames, the contractor for The ma chinery being represented by Mr Ravenbill and Mr Hodgson ; the engines were in charge of Mr i'lliott. On reaching the Lower Hope Reach sir rune' were made at the measured mile, with full boiler power, with the following results :—First ran—Time 7 rein, 40 sec, revolutions of engines 98, speed 7.826 knots, pressure of steam 2311 b, vacuum 26. Second run-- Time 5 min, revolutlous of screw 99, speed 12 k aces, pressure 221, vacuum 261 b. Third run—Time 6 min 32 sec., revolutions 98, speed 7.965 knots, pres sure 221 b. vacuum 261. Fourth run—Time 5 mi n. 3 sec., revolutions 100, speed 11.881 knots, pressure 2211 b., vacuum 261 Fifth run—Time 7 min.,, 26 sec., revolutions 97, speed 8.072 knots, pressure 221 b., vacuum 261. Sixth—Timo 5 min. S e ec., revolutions 100, speed 11.688 knots, pressure 22 lb., vacuum 26. Taking the first means of the above runs we have a speed in knots of 9.913, 9.982, 9.923, 9,976, and 9.888 ; and the second means as 9.880, 9.952, 9.949, and 9.928, giving the true mean speed of the vessel as 9.927 knots, or a trifling fraction under 10 knots per hour. This is considered ex ceedingly satisfactory, and proves the high sailing qualities of the Enterprise, which, although 1,000 tons burden, is driven by engines of 160 horse power only. It should also be remarked that the speed of the Enterprise has exceeded by half a knot the rate calculated upon by her designer, who estimated her steaming capabilities at rather less than 91 knots per hour. The Enterprise, at full steaming carries a rather large wave under her bows, but from the sharp outline of the stem this is thrown upward and outward, and does not interfere in any way with the progress of the vessel through the water. At the termination of runs at full speed four runs were. made over the measured mile at half boiler power, with the following results—First run—time, 6 min. 27 sec., ; speed, 8.022 knots ; revolutions, 83 ; pres sure, 191 b ; vacuum, 26. Second run—time, 8 min. 54 sec.; speed, 9.363 knots ; revolutions, 80 ; pres sure, 191 b.; vacuum, 261. Third run--time, 8 min. 56 sec. ; speed, 6.716 knots ; revolutions, 81 ; pressure, 191 b.; vacuum. 26. Last run—time, 6 rain. 19 see.; speed, 9.499 knots ; revolutions, 81 ; pressure, 1911 b.; vacuum, 261. Tne average speed at half boiler power was 8.105 knots, the Enterprise proving herself to be an equally list steamer under half as when steaming at full boiler power. At the. close of the more important portion of the day's trial some experiments were made with the view of ascertaining the steering and turning capabilities of the Enterprise. The screw well being abolished., the principle of the old gun-room tiller has been. reverted to with the most satisfactory results. The tiller is placed below the armour-plates, which altogether prevents its being shot away, and an arrangement is also effected by means of which the frigate can be steered from the armour-plated bat. tery, whereby the steersmen are effectually pro tected. With four men at the wheel the helm was brought over to starboard, at an angle of 30 deg., and the full circle made in 4 min. 14 sec. from a state of rest, and in 4 min, from full speed, The circle to port, with three turns of the wheel and the rudder at an angle of 29 deg., was accomplished in 4 min. 18 sec. from full speed, and in 4 min. 37 sec. from rest. From the circumstance of the chief weight of the vessel being placed amidships the Enterprise possesses remarkable powers of turning, and during the trials yesterday the full circles were made in little, if at all, more than a diameter of twice the vessel's length. The working of the engines during the trials was exceedingly eatisfac. tory. At the close of the trials she steamed up the river, and awaits orders from the Admiralty. In consequence of the alleged encroachments of the British fishing vessels on the Belgian waters, the Lords of the Admiralty have ordered the Lizard, 3 guns, iron paddlewheel tender to the Formidable, flagship at Sheerness, lieutenant in command Henry J. Challis, to proceed to Ostend to watch proceed ings. The Lizard sailed from Sheerness yesterday. The Clio, 22, screw steam corvette, having com pleted repairs and been refitted for commission in Sheerness dockyard, was yesterday taken for the trial of her engines at the measured mile off Maplin Sands, in command of Capt. W. K. Hall, C. 8., of the Sheerness Steam Reserve. The engines were in charge of Mr. W. Rumble, itspector of machie nery afloat, and Mr George Bloxland, chief engineer of the dockyard. Although a strong breeze was blowing during the trial with a force of frobrnn tiro e v r e s to six the trial was most satisfacto r y , the I g i v ing out plenty of steam, and there b ein g an . a b s ence of hot hearings and priming. The engines,, and w hich have undergone a thorough e li verhau re pair, are from the firm of Messrs Bavenhal, Sal. ewe keld and Co., and are of 400 nor % e trial They worked admirably d u ring t horse The f 0 - __esMean speed at full boil er lowing were the results: _ sure of steam 201 b; power, 12.202 knots ; Pr , 'ens of "g m " , 57 .

The circ le was turned at full Never with helm 20 degrees to starboard in l m i n 37sec, diameter of c i rc l e 286 yar ds ; and with half power helm 27 degrees to port in smin. 33sec., diameter of circle being 35 8 yards; the revolutions of engines while going round the circles were 54 and 44 respectively. The engines ere stopped in 15 seconds, started, g hee(' in 35 seconds, and astern in 35 seconds. The vessel is fitted with Smith's screw, with the corners cut off, its dienseter.being 161 t.; its pitc • h, t.; `'6l' an d it length, 3tt. The draught of water during the trial was—forward-17ft. 6in.; aft, 18ft. 10in. The Ciio is full rigged, having all her sea stores and armament on board, and is expected to be commis• sioned in a few days. The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty :—Commander T. H. Swinhurne, to be Inspecting Commander of the Coastguard, vice Commander Kane, deceased ; Commander Charles Parry, to the Aurora; Arthur P. P enney , nominated to a naval cadetship ; James Paterson, chief engineer, to the Indus for the Agincourt; C. R. Chamberlain, chief engineer, to the Cumberland for the Ariadne ; James Morris, promoted to chief engineer, and appointed to the Cumberland for the Scout ; Henry W. 'fregilge,s, engineer, to the Asia for the Wallace; and William M•lutyre, assistant. engineer, to the Cumberland, as supernumerary. THE TOWN CLERK'S OFFICE. Deputy FRY moved " That it be referred to the Officers and Clerks' Committee to consider the duties of the clerks in the Town Clerk's-office, and to report their opinion as to the present arrangements for conducting the business of the office ; and whether any, and, if any, what increase should be made to the salaries of the clerks." He said it appeared to him that the present system of salaries was not a satisfac tory one, and that it was advisable that something should be done so as to have a progressive increase according to ability and length of service, and thus prevent the necessity for the frequent applications that were being made for in- crease of salaries. (Hear, hear.) The motion was agreed to. THE THAMES CONSERVANCY BILL; Deputy JONES brought up a report from the Law, Par liamentary, and City Courts Bill upon the subject of the Thames. Conservancy Bill at present before Parliament, and also the draft of a petition against it. The hon. deputy, in moving that the report be agreed to, expressed his opinion that this bill contained provisions which most materially affected the rights and privileges of the Corporation, and that there was nothing in the report of the committee of the House of Commons that in any way justified such a radical measure. (Hear, hear.) Deputy ELLIOTT said ho thought the Court ought to pause before they decided upon going to Parliament to op pose this measure. It was true that some additional conser vators were to be appointed, and that they were to be paid £1,500 a year salary, but the Corporation of London would still form one-third of the whole body, which ha could not help expressing his opinion was a fair share. He was afraid that if the Corporation was continually going before Parlia ment they would obtain the character of being a very med dling body, who were thinking of nothing else but looking after what they considered their own rights and privileges. Alderman SoLoltoNs complained of such a measure h av ing been introduced, and said he could come to no other conclusion respecting it than that the privileges of the Cor poration in their capacity of conservators of the river would be very materially abridged, and that additional powers would be given to the Government, and that in fact it would be a complete departmental job. (Hear.) He maintained that the Corporation of London had faithfully performed its duty in reference to the erection of piers in the river, and rendering that important highway as accessible as possible. (Hear, hear,) The proposed bill not only affected the rights of the Corporation, but would also entirely confiscate and destroy the ancient privileges of the Watermen's Company, and a great ma n y of his constituents were deeply interested in that portion of the question. At present none but com petent persons were entitled to navigate craft upon the river, or without a license from the Watermen's Company ; but if this bill became law these licenses would be altogether abolished, and any person, whether competent or not, might ake the charge of a boat or other craft, and the safety of r be public, as it appeared to him, would be seriously endan- gered. Mr. H. L. TAYLOR said it appeared to him that ne more flagrant act of injustice had been committed by any Govern merit than the bringing in of this measure atter the solemn compact made with the Corp oration only a fells ears ago, but which was now entire l y ignored. (hear, proposed r .) The proposed alterations were, in his opinion, most objectionable, and he thought the Corporation ought to oppose the bill by every means in their power. (llear, hear.) Deputy FRY said he thought it right that the Court shoul turd be a ware of the fact that the present body ofrva were unanimouslY opposed t e proposed measure. (User.) the Court for its liberal After a few words in reply from Deputy JONES the petition was agreed to.
